About Vietnam Passport Photo Requirements
Vietnamese passport photos use a 40x60mm format (472x708 pixels) — larger than the standard 35x45mm used across Europe but smaller than Canada's 50x70mm. This unique size means photos prepared for other countries cannot be reused for Vietnamese passport applications.
The Immigration Department (Cục Quản lý xuất nhập cảnh) requires a plain white background with no patterns or shadows. Glasses are not permitted, and the expression must be completely neutral. The face should be centred and evenly lit.
For Vietnamese passport applications, photos can be submitted at local police stations (Công an quận/huyện) or at the Immigration Department offices. The online application system through the national public service portal is increasingly used for passport renewals.
Common Mistakes in Vietnamese Passport Photos
Using the wrong photo size
Vietnam requires 40x60mm, which is different from both the 35x45mm European standard and the 2x2 inch US format. Using the wrong size will delay your application.
Wearing glasses
Glasses are not permitted in Vietnamese passport photos. Remove all eyewear including prescription glasses and sunglasses before taking your photo.
Shadows on background
The white background must be completely uniform with no shadows. Stand away from the wall and use diffused lighting to prevent shadow casting.
Photo not showing both ears
Vietnamese passport requirements prefer both ears to be visible. If your hair covers your ears, tuck it back for the photo.
